Due to a situation between Rich and another member that went sideways (upside-down and a few other directions, too) last spring, and which he refused a number of attempts and offers to rectify the situation, Rich was temporarily banned from the site in the hopes that it would spur him on to resolve things. To the best of my knowledge, he has not done that and so he remains banned from the site.

As long time members know, banning is not something we like or that we do lightly here (one of the reasons this place started was in response to heavy handed banning at another site). We do it very rarely and only after every other course of action has been tried._________________Pete
